Destiny

April 7, 1986

I AM GRATIFIED with your attitude as voiced in your editorial headlined ''Tighten deadly-force rules,'' which had to do with the fatal shooting by an Orlando police officer of a fleeing suspect. Perhaps one day there will be a greater respect for a man's life.

The last paragraph in your editorial says it all. ''In his ruling, Orange County Judge George Sprinkel wrote that by running, Keith Rozier 'controlled his own destiny.' True, but the Orlando Police Department also controls its own destiny and its ability to have respect in the community.''
